I’ve got no argument with the “never be afraid to try” part, but…
- What little evidence there is of Noah’s Ark’s existence is a bit sketchy and not trustworthy, what with it being based on the mistranslated hand-me-down propaganda of biased bronze age “47 percenters” who ended up waging class war on Egypt’s job creators.
- The written account says that Noah built the Ark with help from God. If you’ve ever worked on a group project, you know that there’s always a star player who does 90% of the work. Who better than the guy who engineered the crisis in the first place to design the thing that would get you through it?
- The Titanic’s sinking can partially be blamed on construction (substandard materials), but operator error played a large role.
- If you need folksy-sounding wisdom like this to get motivated, even the most minor of obstacles is likely to discourage you.
